With a quarter of the season behind us, the 2025 MLB campaign is in full swing. It's too early to see who the true contenders for the World Series as well as end-of-season awards are, but at this juncture we can crown Nike as true innovators of the on-field jersey movement in the 21st century.
The latest proof comes in the form of the Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack, which features distinct designs for multiple MLB teams participating in the highly popular City Connect program. These shoes perfectly complement Nike's lineup of jerseys that combine local flavor with cutting-edge performance technology.
What Makes This Pack Special?
Each pair in the City Connect Pack incorporates colors and design elements directly inspired by the teams' City Connect uniforms. This creates a broader ecosystem of coordinated performance wear that maintains visual cohesion from head to toe.
The kicks feature lightweight mesh uppers with strategically placed leather overlays for support and durability. Underfoot, the massive 270 Air unit ensures premium cushioning for both players and sneakerheads alike.
Available Teams
The initial drop includes seven teams whose City Connect uniforms have been particularly popular:
- Boston Red Sox ("Boston")
- Chicago Cubs ("Wrigleyville")
- Los Angeles Dodgers ("Los Dodgers")
- Miami Marlins ("Miami")
- San Francisco Giants ("Splash City")
- Texas Rangers ("Tough Cavalry")
- Washington Nationals ("District Cool")
Pricing and Availability
The Nike Air Max 270 MLB City Connect Pack is available now through the Nike SNKRS app
"This is precisely the type of innovation that shows why Nike remains MLB's official uniform supplier. From the first City Connect jerseys to these performance lifestyle hybrids, they keep raising the bar for mixing local culture with sports apparel." — Marty Kolitz, Baseball Style Magazine
